# Export #### Export The **Export** function prepares a TempoWeave project for use with **TempoTreadle** by creating a compliant design file along with the associated cached files required for fast loading on the device. During export, a **special version of the WIF file** is generated with the following modifications: * All comments are removed (comments longer than 32 characters cause issues in TempoTreadle). * File names are checked for excessive length or invalid characters. * The number of warp ends and picks is verified to ensure it does not exceed TempoTreadle’s maximum limits. * Information not required by TempoTreadle is stripped out to improve loading performance. To avoid confusion with the original WIF stored on your computer, the exported WIF file has **“\_tt” appended** to the draft name. The Export function allows you to select the **drive letter** corresponding to the micro-SD card, then creates and copies all required TempoTreadle files directly to that card. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
